This study explored possible connections between Columbus,
Ohio, respondents' residential environment and their social and
political orientations. The study contains a combination of survey and
aggregate data. The individual interviews probed the respondents'
views on a wide variety of social and political issues of both local
and national relevance. The respondents' social and political
activism, their political preferences, and their positions on civil
rights issues were ascertained, as well as their opinions of the
city's and the federal government's performances. Demographic
information covers the respondents' age, race, religion, marital
status, level of education, employment status, and occupation. The
aggregate data were extracted from the 1960 Census tract returns for
the sampling areas, locating each individual in a particular social,
political and economic context.
